hmm, then they supply an "internet" connection... - this is good, well,
bad that they make up their own DNS, but good that it is not restricted

My own experience with At&T is limited to their mobile data offerings,
they did not allow me to tether my notebook to my android pad without
changing data plan to 5GB ($50 per month) - I also prefer using Google
DNS, (google has really cool DNS admins :) ) and also trust Cisco
(givers of SpamCop through Talos) sooo

anyway, good to know AT&T (&Gigabit product) is not evil, there seems to 
be so much evil around these days, even my toaster wants to control the
world //**adjusting tinfoil hat to pull at lonely ear lobe**
